The lyric leans into repetition not for catchiness alone, but to mimic a mind circling the same empty room.
'Please tell me why' becomes less a question and more a ritual, something you say because you've run out of other words.

kodoku o erabu
The lyric leans into repetition not for catchiness alone, but to mimic a mind circling the same empty room. 'Please tell me why' becomes less a question and more a ritual, something you say because you've run out of other words.
The phrase 'kodoku o erabu', choosing loneliness, doesn't sound like a surrender. It feels more like a quiet, stubborn decision, something you keep picking even when it hurts. There's a weariness in 'Hitorikiri kaeru train de nagareru City light and tired eyes', watching the city blur past alone, that makes the choice feel heavy and real.
It's a short, plain statement that holds the whole song's ache. Choosing loneliness means you know the other options, and you're still taking this one.
The way 'Oshiete - te - te Please - te - te - te' stretches and breaks gives the plea a ragged, almost breathless edge.

Tell me why why mamoritainoni
Please tell me why why
Kyou mo kimi wa so lonely
Why why kodoku o erabu
Oshiete - te - te Please - te - te - te Right now!
Yuuwaku ga hisomu sekai de
Shoujiki mono ni wa narenai
Tsuyoki na fashion de katame
Atashi o mamoru no wa atashi
Hitorikiri kaeru train de nagareru
City light and tired eyes
Ondo no nai keshiki ga atama o mitashite yuku no
Tell me why why mamoritainoni
Please tell me why why kyou mo kimi wa so lonely
Why why kodoku o erabu
Oshiete - te - te Please - te - te - te. Right now!
Seigi wa aku de wa nai to
Ienai kanashii jidai ni
Bokura nani o shiunji
Ikite ikeba ii no? Wakaranai
Soto ni dereba ubawareru dake
Don't wanna see your sad face
Demo kono mama owatteku no wa tsumarana sugiru
